Taiwan Observer travels: The Vatican museum in photos

Recently one of the Taiwan Observer correspondents took a trip to Europe. Here are some photos of the Vatican museum. The museum is one of the all time must see spots in Italy. This is what you can see as you go trough the Vatican museum on your way to the famous Sistine chapel, unfortunately there aren’t any photos of the Sistine chapel from our correspondent because you aren’t allowed to take pictures of it. Other than that pictures of everything else are a plenty, and don’t disappoint. Stay tuned for more amazing pictures from other parts of Europe, and let us take you on a little visual journey outside of Taiwan.

Banqiao flower market in photos

Over the weekend we headed out to the Banqiao Flower Market to take a look around and see if we could find some dried flowers. There were many beautiful flowers but on this day many of the stalls were closed. Few of the stores were open and even fewer people showed up before 11 a.m. on a Sunday morning. This may be because anyone looking for flowers on the weekend might head over to the bigger market, The Taipei Weekend flower market. Fewer people actually made the experience a lot more pleasant, allowing us to take our time and snap some great photos of the orchids. The orchids were really a beautiful site with clear love and devotion poured into looking after them. The bonsai trees were the same there was clear love and care put into pruning and shaping the trees, it looked like hours and hours worth of painstaking work.
